Question

The equation of a line is y = 1.5x − 2. What are its slope and y-intercept?

Answer 1

slope = 1.5 and y- intercept = - 2 → A

the equation of a line in ' slope-intercept form ' is

y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c the y-intercept

y = 1.5x - 2 is in this form

with slope m = 1.5 and y-intercept c = - 2

Answer 2

This equation is written in slope intercept form, y=mx+b, with m being the slope and b being the y-intercept.

The slope of the line is 1.5 and the y-intercept is -2. The answer is A.

I hope this helps ;)
